EXPERIENCE IS NOT THE BEST TEACHER.
I am sure you would have heard over and over that experience is the best teacher, or invaribly you must have planned to try out a thing and check if it will work or not,having in mind that if it works,then yippee, but if it doesnt,then you've learnt and would eventually try again. Well, that assertion might have been true in the past, but not any longer.
Gone are those day when experience is the best teacher.
Gone are those day when you would have to fail and make a lot of mistakes before you can be experienced in a certain area.
Gone are those days when you gain experiences through trial and error.
NOT ANYMORE!
There is now a better, easier and faster way to learn now. And that is through MODELLING. Modelling entails looking for people that have successfully done what you want to do and learning from them how they did it.It involves studying the strategies that helped people succeed and replicating those strategies in your own life. It actually save you the stress trying to figure things out yourself from the scratch. And if carried out with precision after proper study, it will prevent you from wasting your time and making unnecessary mistakes in the process of doing it all by yourself. Can you now see that there is something better than experience?
¤ Modelling saves time
¤ Modelling provides ample time for thinking creatively
¤ Modelling helps save cost that would have been wasted under experience loss
¤ Modelling keeps you in the path of your goal knowing what you plan on achieving
Experience is not the best teacher, modelling is. We should Stop trying to learn through experience, and start learning through modelling. By learning through modelling, your learning curves will be shortened and you will get more effective results,you are provided with ample time to think creatively and be your own master.
Thank you for reading
A real eye opener. A lot of us do modelling and don't even know it. But I would like to differ a little and say that experience is a good teacher, and modelling is a better teacher
I also concur

This is called, "standing on the shoulders of the giants." those who have gone ahead of us. Those who have thread the same path we want to. Following them back to back instead of making mistakes first.
I think I should change the topic to: 'Standing on the shoulder of giants':Another Dope strategy.
